About Alpine Inn

Alpine Inn offers delicious fried chicken, with friendly and accommodating staff. Visitors enjoy watching raccoons outside, some even have names like Sparkles and Lizzo. The food is always hot and tasty, with generous portions. The fried chicken is perfect, and many customers believe it is as good as the overall experience of the restaurant. Although it can get loud and crowded, with occasional wait times, the atmosphere is filled with people having a great time. Many families appreciate the fun, especially the kids who love the raccoons and the cake at the end. Customers keep coming back for more, thankful for the phenomenal food and reasonable prices. It is recommended to go early to secure a table, particularly those by the windows for a prime view of the raccoons enjoying leftovers.

During warmer months, raccoons are out all day, while in colder months, they come closer to evening. About ten raccoons often gather at once, creating a lively and entertaining scene. The raccoons are feisty, trying to horde food and biting each other as they eat behind a locked emergency exit door. Visitors often order the 4 piece dinner plate, sharing it while enjoying the fun show. The chicken tenders are juicy and lightly breaded, making the meal special. Customers appreciate the large portions and fair prices, though they note the absence of Arnold Palmers or lemonade. For dessert, a sour cream and raisin pie is offered, which is surprisingly very sweet.

Overall, Alpine Inn is a fun and unique place where the chicken is truly excellent. It is a legitimate fried chicken destination and a great spot for families to enjoy the raccoons. Calling ahead is recommended, as hours can vary. The lively atmosphere and entertaining raccoons make it a memorable experience for all visitors.

Decided to give Alpine Inn a try as my 11 year old son wanted to celebrate his birthday here. We’ve seen the reviews and recommendations. I get the set up as a dive location, we wanted that, don’t mind the cash only concept. However your staff is the issue. Your host is not a host, he’s just going through the motions. I had to call him out twice for his rudeness and “not being able to at least provide a wait time”, adds me on the list to get overlooked, and shoves me...read full review

Just moved from Chicago to Omaha and have been told this was the spot for experience and food. Day 2 in Omaha we had to check it out! Food was delicious, large portions none of us could finish for a very fair price! Food took a minute but that is no bother when you have the cutest raccoons for entertainment. Service was awesome! Everyone was friendly and welcoming, even made friends with the table next to us.

Summer the raccoons are out all day, colder months they come...read full review
